MultiVersus Unveils Final Two Characters Amid Fan Backlash

The saga of MultiVersus deserves a chapter in gaming history, a cautionary tale alongside other ambitious failures. Yet, the game isn't quite finished, with developers unveiling its final two characters: Lola Bunny and Aquaman.

This announcement arrives amidst considerable fan frustration, some escalating to threats against the development team. MultiVersus game director Tony Huynh responded with a lengthy message, pleading with players to refrain from such behavior.

Huynh apologized to fans who won't see their desired characters join the roster, expressing hope they'll enjoy Season 5's content. He clarified that character selection involves numerous factors, and his influence was less than some players believed.

Following the shutdown announcement, players voiced anger over their inability to spend in-game tokens on new characters—a promised perk for purchasers of the $100 edition. This likely contributed to the threats directed at the team.
